TIRANA, February 7/ATA/ Last night, the National Opera and Ballet House in Tirana put on stage the “Aida” opera by Italian composer Giuseppe Verdi, a magnificent production realized according to the vision of the legendary Franco Zeffirelli.

Being among the most famous of the world opera repertoire, the “Aida” was performed on the first night by soprano Eva Golemi in the role of Aida and Ivana Hoxha as Amneris, while the second cast includes Maria Teresa Leva and Tamta Tarelashvili.

Other artists in the main roles are: Carlos Cardoso, Armando Likaj, Bledar Domi, Xhieldo Hyseni, Matis Xheli, Dorina Selimaj, etc.

The Symphonic Orchestra, soloists and Choir of the Opera House were conducted by maestro Sergio Alapont and maestro Dritan Lumshi.

Although “Aida” has been staged several times at Opera and Ballet House in Tirana, it has once again attracted the attention of the art-loving audience, causing tickets to be sold out in record time for the first two nights.

This opera will be performed again on February 8, 10 and 12. /p.s./
